Bay Leaf Wreath

Its snowing....did you hear the distinctive whine in my voice?  Since getting out the past few days hasn't been that appealing I've been working on some small projects and this bay leaf wreath is one of them.

I made a trip to Penzy last week, love that store and as I slogged around in my big snow boots I picked up a bag of bay leaves to give a wreath a whirl.  I think the cost of the bag of leaves was around two dollars and with another Dollar Store grapevine wreath as a base I've got three dollars total in this project.

I won't bother with a tutorial, I mean really...just fire up the glue gun (or in my case the glue pot) and start at the back with some larger leaves and work around the grapevine and then move in with another layer. Continue tucking in leaves here and there until your pleased with the look. Here is the boxwood wreath I did before the holidays

 

The wreath is sitting in my kitchen and for a couple of days its smelled wonderful, now the fragrance is mostly gone but it still looks pretty against the white snow outside.  Only down side to this particular project is its very fragile.

Happy Weekend Everyone
